Additional quotes by Jean de La Fontaine

It is a double pleasure to deceive the deceiver.

For thee I'll trace in verses which I write Some sketches, paintings which indeed are light, And if the prize of pleasing thee I do not bear away, At least, the honour I shall have of having tried I say.

Apprenez que tout flatteur
Vit aux dépens de celui qui l'écoute.
